One branch of our shared tree, rooted in resilience and community

  • A sunny day with a clear blue sky, showing a palm tree branch in the foreground, a beige apartment building with balconies, and mountain in the background.
  • Children raising their hands in a classroom or event space, with some seated and some standing, near a large pink window or curtain, with a wall artwork of mountains in the background.
  • A young girl sitting at a black metal picnic table outside, writing in a workbook with a pencil, while an adult woman, possibly her teacher or parent, leans over to assist her. The scene is shaded by nearby trees, and the background shows a beige building with windows and a maroon door.
  • Two young women standing outside near a building, smiling at the camera. One is holding a clipboard and the other a folder.
  • Group of children standing outdoors, holding school supplies and notebooks, smiling for the camera, with colorful welcome signs in the background.
  • A boy in a blue hoodie playing with a red ball in a parking lot, with four children in the background near a wall, and an exterior staircase attached to a building.
  • Two young girls smiling with arms around each other, standing outdoors against a gray wall.
  • Four women standing outside smiling at the camera, three wearing white t-shirts with a heart and text, one wearing a gray t-shirt with an owl graphic, with children and a building in the background.

A Letter From
Principal Bonnie

As principal, I am thrilled to extend a warm welcome to all our students, families, and community members. As you may know, OCS- South is the second campus of Odyssey Charter Schools and supports students in grades Transitional Kindergarten through Eighth Grade. OCS- South is a nurturing environment where self-directed students develop academic skills and real life knowledge, through exploration, investigation, reflection, and collaboration with other students, teachers, parents and the wider community: a classroom without walls. Our dedicated team of educators is committed to our core values which include community, inclusivity, diverse by design and academic excellence. We are excited to partner with you in guiding our students to reach their fullest potential.

We pride ourselves on developing active learners who discover their interests and broaden their knowledge in an engaging environment of academic excellence. Through a workshop model that emphasizes student choice and emotional well-being, students collaborate with peers, teachers and community members. Our thoughtfully designed curriculum promotes social responsibility that impacts the larger community.

As we embark on this academic year, we look forward to creating meaningful experiences and lasting memories together. Thank you for choosing OCS- South where every day is an opportunity for community and learning.

Ms. Bonnie Brimecombe, Principal OCS-South
